Arielle Marchand Potvin
Social Work
Arielle has always been passionate about human connection—long before she began studying social work. For her, this field was a true calling, allowing her to delve into the complexities of communication, social injustice, and intervention. Since 2018, she has been working in the community sector as a social worker, welcoming people with respect and empathy and supporting them in meeting their needs.
She spent nearly six years working in emergency shelters for young women, where she was involved in daily life support. She now works in a women’s center focused on popular education and the defense of women’s rights.
With Brèches, Arielle brings attentive listening, empathy, and a caring presence to the various experiences offered. She also shares her expertise to help foster broad reflection on social intervention and the needs of individuals in contexts of conscious openness, vulnerability, and in their philosophical, social, and spiritual explorations.
